About this property

Corsair Cottage- Opposite beach

A classic beach house in a great spot. Corsair Cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 with a queen bed and the other with twin bunks, sleeping 6 in total.

Cross the road & it's about a 300m walk to a sheltered swimming and dog friendly beach. Less than a 30 min beachfront boulevard stroll to Pt Lonsdale shops & the same distance to Queenscliff. You can choose whether you stroll along the dog beach, through the Moonahs via 'Lovers walk' or along the shores of Swan Bay.

Rinse off from the surf in the outdoor shower or at night lay back in the outdoor bath under stars listening to the surf.

Corsair Cottage is perfect for kids. It's opposite the beach, room to run and play in the front yard or cubby and it is a few hundred metres to a skate park and marine discovery centre which has great school holiday programs. The property is well connected to various kid safe bike and scooter trails.

Please BYO linen including sheets, towels and tea towels. Pillows and doonas are provided.

Off street parking is available out the front of the property.

The property is a great holiday for your dogs too. Many say the dog beach opposite is one of the best in the state, the best part is you don’t need to load wet and sandy dogs into your car. The property is fully fenced. Pets are welcome inside, we just ask that you keep them off furniture and clean up after them.

Please note: As we are in a residential area and friendly with our neighbours, we do not accept schoolies groups, hens or bucks parties or functions of any sort.

Suited us perfectly
We are a retired couple with our dog. The cottage was a little older than I expected but it was nicely done up. It perfectly suited us. The couch was comfortable, so was the bed. The heater was used as the evenings are getting cooler. We were very comfortable. The security of the fences was great for our peace of mind as it is on a main road. Short walking distance to the dog beach and the shops. We shall return.

Dog Beach Heaven
Small cabin style house that was tidy and had everything we needed. Nice yard area for the dog but no covered area outdoors. Short walk to the best dog beach in the state. Doggy heaven. Really enjoyed our stay.

Doggy beach getaway
Location is perfect - so close to the designated doggy beach for our fur baby and close to the Adventure Park waterslides for our son. We instantly felt at home - the cottage is clean, the beds are comfortable and the dog toy and rocky road welcome gifts were a nice touch. Thank you!

Lovely place - wish we could have stayed longer
The property has everything you need . The living space is spacious & sunny. The large garden is completely dog proofed & it was such a bonus the property is dog friendly . Especially as it’s opposite a gorgeous dog beach. The hosts are lovely & welcoming. The property is close to restaurants & cafes and an easy walk to the beach . Couldn’t ask for more !

Queenscliff short/long stay
The location of the property was excellent and I enjoyed lots of walks along the beach area with my little dog and we had a wonderful time. You could hear the beach waves at times and the high tides with really strong wind meant for spectacular waves.

Mini break by the beach
Great location if you have dogs. It's only a short walk to a safe off lead dog beach. Main road is quite busy and noisy. Accom is more than adequate but could do with a paint job and new curtains and blinds. Would visit again though as location is great.

Great beach cottage, doggies loved it
This cute old fashioned beach cottage was perfect, it has everything you need for a simple relaxing and comfortable stay, with a few mod-cons. The yard is realy private, and superbly fenced, our two Cairns had a great time in the space (plenty of safe space for games of catch). The dog beach is wonderfully close, a simple 5-10 minute walk. Making the outdoor shower a great feature to rinse off the beach. The big air-con and ceiling fan worked brilliantly during a heat wave. We loved the welcome gift waiting for us, and the ball thrower waiting for the dogs was perfect (as we forgot ours). From booking, to stay, and after, our hosts were simply wonderful. Corsair Cottage will become a regular for us.

we were delighted with the house and perfection location, our dogs loved it also. Easy walk to the beach with great food shops with in a 5 minute drive. 10/10 Found Ocean view fish and chips in Ocean Grove far better than the Queenscliff fish and chip shop .. well worth the 12 minute drive ..

Just what we needed!
Great location, close to everything! Our little poodle enjoyed the dog beach and the grassy front yard. Well equipped little house with everything we needed-We felt very much at home. Bunks could do with an upgrade, very squeaky but comfy. Communication with the host was fantastic, very responsive, and informative! Will be back 😉

Dogs' haven
The two of us and our two dogs had a lovely weekend at the Corsair Cottage. The beautiful dog's beach just opposite was the best. The bed was comfortable and the living room spacious. We didn't make use of the cooking facilities as there were lots of restaurant options so close either in Pt Lonsdale or Queenscliff. We had relaxing evenings in the front garden, looking at the stars but we were not brave enough to use the outside bath, especially now that there is another house at the back, LOL. Overall, a nice relaxing weekend with our furry babies.

Loved our stay !
The cottage was ideal for my husband and I and our small dog. Secure yard, neat and clean home with everything we needed in a convenient location almost opposite dog friendly beach and close to Queenscliffe. Owner was very helpful and responsive in all communication. We would definitely stay again and hope to return one day for another lovely short break.
